Frequently asked questions

Is the petting zoo included in general admission?

At most farms, yes — the animal barn is bundled into general admission rather than ticketed separately. It's still worth confirming when you call, since a minority of larger destination farms do charge extra for it.

What animals will actually be there?

It varies by farm, but goats, sheep, alpacas, rabbits and barn cats are the most common. Larger farms sometimes add pigs, ponies or a small aviary. Check the individual listing for specifics where we have them.

Are petting zoos safe for toddlers?

Generally yes, with normal precautions. Well-run farms provide hand-washing stations near the animal area — worth using properly, since animal contact areas are a recognized source of E. coli and salmonella exposure in young children. Strollers are frequently not permitted inside the enclosure itself, so plan for carrying.

Do I need to bring anything, or pay extra to feed the animals?

Feed cups are usually available on site for a dollar or two, even when general admission is free or already paid. You don't need to bring your own animal feed, and farms generally don't allow outside food for the animals.
